"My name is Vermin Supreme and I am from the internet" -- (link) - CovingtonCat Jun 1, 16:49 2
- except for the federally mandated ponies, he's probably a better candidate than any other republican that ran this year -- nm - zeitgeist Jun 1, 17:01 1
  - I can just imagine Jack Dawson complaining about the neighbor's ponies in the vestibule blocking his doorway -- nm - zeitgeist Jun 1, 17:02
Crazy thing about E3 in LA next week: Stanley Cup games will be going on at Staples across the street. -- nm - budice Jun 1, 16:35 2
- Gathering every white person in LA in one place is part of The Plan. -- nm - con_carne Jun 1, 16:48
- That would be my dream week. -- nm - Mop (198 lbs) Jun 1, 16:46
mel dvr'd Chris Hemsworth's interview on the Today Show this morning. that was really nice. heh. -- nm - Diva Jun 1, 16:25 4
- So 5$ bet that tonight Deevs is surprised by Mel on the bed in a long haired blonde wig - Aussie accent - telling her to come test out his (ahem) - JenBro Jun 1, 16:47 2
  - Is is Saturday night again? -- nm - Spawn Jun 1, 16:48 1
    - :D -- nm - JenBro Jun 1, 16:53
- Awesome! -- nm - Epiphany Jun 1, 16:28
Of the candidates that ran, I'm glad Romney got the Republican nomination because it's looking rough for Obama. -- nm - Dano Jun 1, 16:21 36
- I would have never ever voted for Santorum, Bachman or Paul. No matter how bad the economy got. Romney will get my vote if we enter a double dip - Bacon Jun 1, 16:39 29
  - But see, Romney *is* a kook candidate. -- nm - Spawn Jun 1, 16:42 11
    - Oh well. That's how I am voting if we are going back into a recession. -- nm - Bacon Jun 1, 16:44 10
      - So you're voting for Romney. Because we haven't got out of one. -- nm - the liioulu with Jun 1, 16:47 9
        
        Yeah...we did. - Will Hunting Jun 1, 16:48 8
        
        No, not really. -- nm - the liioulu with Jun 1, 16:52 4
        
        You are wrong. Look up the definition of an economic recession. - Bacon Jun 1, 16:55 3
        
        In what areas? -- nm - the liioulu with Jun 1, 16:57 2
        
        The US Economy....a recession is 2 or more quarters of negative growth. - Will Hunting Jun 1, 17:01
        
        GDP -- nm - Bacon Jun 1, 16:59
        
        Yes and Yes. To some it doesn't feel like we got out of it (long term unemployed) but by definition we have been out for a few years as Will points - Bacon Jun 1, 16:52 2
        
        What definition? -- nm - the liioulu with Jun 1, 16:53 1
        
        The definition of a recession - con_carne Jun 1, 16:55
  - A double dip recession would not be his fault. If the Republicans got more power we'd be heading for triple dip. -- nm - the liioulu with Jun 1, 16:41 16
    - I am telling you how I am going to vote. Obama needed to dump Geithner 2 years ago. They were too soft. - Bacon Jun 1, 16:43 15
      - He had a lot of help (and I'm using that term sarcastically) from the Tea Party and GOP. - the liioulu with Jun 1, 16:47 14
        
        Okay then. If he gets reelected how is he going to get anything done? Is anything going to change? - Bacon Jun 1, 16:51 13
        
        So how will things change if Romney gets elected? - the liioulu with Jun 1, 16:56 12
        
        They don't have to gain seats in the House...and their opposition is the Democrats. - Will Hunting Jun 1, 17:02 5
        
        And what was the number in the House? -- nm - the liioulu with Jun 1, 17:05 4
        
        The House was a large majority; and the House; the majority controls the rules and debate. - Will Hunting Jun 1, 17:07 3
        
        Then go vote for Romney. - the liioulu with Jun 1, 17:11 2
        
        I have no dog in the fight for who to vote for; but I hate seeing incorrect stuff. You were incorrect. -- nm - Will Hunting Jun 1, 17:23 1
        
        I don't believe that we are really out of the recession. I believe that saying we are is more wishful thinking than reality. - the liioulu with Jun 1, 17:28
        
        I don't know. I am making my vote based on what IS happening, and what MAY happen if a new guy is in office. - Bacon Jun 1, 16:58 5
        
        And that's going to happen how? - the liioulu with Jun 1, 17:02 4
        
        It's a vote for a different guy. Obama needs to get the fed to fix this quickly, or he's sunk. -- nm - Bacon Jun 1, 17:05 3
        
        He needs Congress to do that and it isn't going to happen. And comeon, economicallly he hews closer to the Republicans than Democrats. - the liioulu with Jun 1, 17:07 2
        
        I ain't excited about voting for Romney. It's not like I am going to help his campaign. He just gets my vote. - Bacon Jun 1, 17:27 1
        
        And if Greece leaves the EU and that causes the recovery to fail here you'll blame that on Obama? - the liioulu with Jun 1, 17:32
- But I still have no effen clue how Romney is going to govern -- nm - amoxy Jun 1, 16:25 5
  - I wonder which states he will gut and sell off? -- nm - Spawn Jun 1, 16:41 1
    - The ones that don't vote for him, duh. -- nm - Bacon Jun 1, 16:47
  - How would you like me to govern? -- nm - Romney Jun 1, 16:26 2
    - The Pro Choice Romney -- nm - amoxy Jun 1, 16:34 1
      - + pro gay marriage. *nods* -- nm - Epiphany Jun 1, 16:50

You wouldn't like me when I'm angry... because I always back up my rage with facts and documented sources. -- nm - The Credible Hulk Jun 1, 15:27 3
- Why wouldn't I like that? Your suggestion that I wouldn't is actually sort of incredible, really. -- nm - mara Jun 1, 15:31 1
  - Credibility and knowledge create dislike and rage in the ignorant. :) -- nm - Beryllium Jun 1, 16:01
- Hulk ... cite! -- nm - Beryllium Jun 1, 15:29
And there goes Marine One over my office. - pmb Jun 1, 15:06 2

      - Hey, I qualify! -- nm - Mop (198 lbs) Jun 1, 15:01 1

    - Agnew shot first -- nm - Beryllium Jun 1, 14:49
Hey Google Music, good job on giving out great songs for free. Hey me, good job spending money on songs you can get for free now. -- (link) - Mop (198 lbs) Jun 1, 13:59 11
- didn't you buy MP3s that you already own on CD? -- nm - loosilu Jun 1, 14:05 10
  - And then I get rid of the CDs. Would you like to buy an MP3? -- nm - Mop (198 lbs) Jun 1, 14:10 9
    - Why would you not just download the cd's? -- nm - pmb Jun 1, 14:14 7
      - ??? From where? -- nm - Mop (198 lbs) Jun 1, 14:30 6
        
        Ummmm, the cd's? - pmb Jun 1, 14:35 5
        
        You mean "rip" the CDs? Yeah, we did that. Now we have CDs we bought 20 years ago for 1 song, and 11 songs we don't want. - Mop (198 lbs) Jun 1, 14:38 4
        
        You can rip the one song and then sell the cd (or better yet just keep all the songs (because, why not?)) and then sell the cd. So why by the song? -- nm - pmb Jun 1, 14:44 3

    - thanks, I'll just rip my CDs. -- nm - loosilu Jun 1, 14:10

- Grrr! This makes me so angry. Quit being such a victim. You have rights too! - Mop (198 lbs) Jun 1, 14:33
- A third of your home is unusable, and it took being home all day to realize she didn't accomplish much? -- nm - mara Jun 1, 14:08 14
  - I would imagine a smart dude wouldn't come home from work ask ask his stay-at-home wife, "Why don't you get anything done all day?" -- nm - loosilu Jun 1, 14:10 13
    - There are days where I know my wife does not get much done....and there are days where shes super busy....I let the lazy days slide by... - Walt_Disney Jun 1, 14:27 2
      - I bet that one third of the house is taken up by kids stuff....my house seems that way now. -- nm - Walt_Disney Jun 1, 14:42
      - But one-third of the house! -- nm - mara Jun 1, 14:29
    - How does asking anything enter into it? I'm just talking about awareness of this situation, not the reasons for it. -- nm - mara Jun 1, 14:13 9
      - It's one thing to infer, another to actually see it. -- nm - Roger More, future Prime Minister of Canada Jun 1, 14:20 2
        
        honestly, it appears like neither of them were really aware of what the other did. -- nm - loosilu Jun 1, 14:21 1
        
        Yep, no communication and no understanding. -- nm - Roger More, future Prime Minister of Canada Jun 1, 14:26
      - I'm guessing she claimed to be super duper busy. -- nm - loosilu Jun 1, 14:14 5
        
        I get the feeling the having one-third of your house unusable is not quite as unthinkable to you as it is to me. :-) -- nm - mara Jun 1, 14:31 2
        
        ha! -- nm - loosilu Jun 1, 14:45 1

    - ummm, what part of "stay at home mom" aren't you understanding here? - znufrii Jun 1, 14:06 1
      - right, you know, that's what people do when they can afford it. -- nm - loosilu Jun 1, 14:06
- wow. this one isn't fake. -- nm - loosilu Jun 1, 14:04

  - So very very this. Also, I don't know anyone who actually likes DD. -- nm - loosilu Jun 1, 14:02 2
